“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The expansion is in all directions, so to speak. We have not quite completely explained the idea of traveling through intensities to you, simply because words are inadequate. The idea of traveling through intensities gives the result, in your system, of traveling through time, as I have told you.

The travel connection again. Now the feeling of trains, or a tunnel, as a train tunnel would be. This is an attempt to get at the curved corridor connection more clearly.

(In any event travel by various modes from a cluster of surrounding towns in that area would have been necessary for the artists attending the reunion.

(There is another possible travel connection here, depending upon interpretation. The envelope object is postmarked Ridgewood, NJ, which lies on the outer rim of the commuter towns attendant to New York City. The letter the object contained, however, was written by Wendell at his home in Edgewater, NJ, which is just across the Hudson from New York City. The two towns are at least 25 miles apart—a trip Wendell makes daily.

(“A string, as of lights, or pearls, in a string of succession, of items in succession.” We interpreted this as a possible reference to street lights at first, or a theater marquee, since the reunion was held at night, and nighttime travel would involve lights, etc. But “items in succession” could just as well refer to words in succession—i.e., the letter that had been enclosed in the envelope object or the printing and typing on the object itself.

(“The travel connection again. Now the feeling of trains, or a tunnel, as a train tunnel would be. This is an attempt to get at the curved corridor connection more clearly.” This is difficult to interpret without place names, and I did not think to ask Seth for any at the time. In any traveling Wendell might have done from his home in Edgewater, NJ, to New York City, trains and cars could very well have been involved.

(Tunnels would also be involved going to New York City, but not as far as I know in travel on only the New Jersey side of the Hudson. I lived in that area for a few years, some time ago, and recall no tunnels at the moment.

Also, unfortunately, the “My fair lady” connection… The lights, a tunnel… He intended to travel by car. Did so, part way through the tunnel, but then he parked the car and went by subway.

(This passage may be somewhat distorted. I do not know that it is possible to travel part way through a tunnel, then park. Seth/Jane may have meant that Wendell drove to New York City via one of the tunnels, then parked at the tunnel exit, which is possible, and took a subway to the restaurant, rather than one in New Jersey. Another point to check out with Wendell.)
